Guest Reviews

• Valentina (10/5): - Soggiornare al Koyasan Shukubo Komyoin è stata un'esperienza indimenticabile. I monaci sono stati gentilissimi e super disponibili nello spiegarci ogni dettaglio. Ho partecipato a tre cerimonie bellissime e profonde: la suggestiva meditazione serale, la preghiera del mattino prima di colazione e l'emozionante cerimonia del fuoco. Nota di merito anche per la cucina: i pasti vegetariani erano buonissimi e ricchi di sapore. Camera pulita, confortevole e accogliente. Consigliatissimo a chi cerca un'immersione autentica sul Monte Koya!
• Rita (8/5): -
• Walraet (9/5): - Expérience à faire absolument. Il faut aussi prévoir les deux journées minimum à Koyasan Le repas, un régal C’était parfait
• Konečný (4/5): If you are not a bug fan on temples then don’t try it - People were nice Food was disappointing
• Lenka (9/5): Když vychytáte dobry termín s dobrou cenou, tak se to určitě vyplatí. My to měli téměř dvakrát dražší než obvykle v jiný - Poklidný krásný klášter, zajímavé jídlo, skvělé prostory, velký pokoj, krásné zahrady, skvělá lokalita Špatná angličtina, nebylo jim moc rozumět. Vswchny ceremoniály vedl velmi mladý mnich a bylo to spíše rozpačitější. Viděli jsme ohňový ceremoniál nedaleko v jiném klášteře, kde zpívalo více mnichů, hráli na bubny a další nástroje a bylo to magické oproti tomuto spíše velmi komornímu provedení.

• Eric (9/5): Une expérience formidable! - Hébergement chez les moines idéalement placé au centre. Accueil doux et serein, expérience de méditation, et excellents repas Rien !
• Gustavo (8/5): -
• Gloria (9/5): Great temple stay experience at Koyasan - Superb temple stay experience in Koyasan, we loved staying here and experience the temple activities. The room was lovely and futons and bed quite comfy. Bathrooms are shared so this might be a limit/difficulty for some. Breakfast wasn’t as good as the dinner
• Paula (7/5): - Una experiencia interesante. La comida muy rica y la sala de meditación muy bonita. Una pena que el staff no hable inglés. Sentimos que no llegamos a conocer bien su religión ni su modo de vida, que era lo que nos interesaba. Después de las meditaciones, había una larga explicación en japonés, y la traducción de después en inglés se quedaba siempre corta y muy banal. Además, aunque disfrutamos de la experiencia, creo que es demasiado caro para lo que es.
• xiaoqiang (9/5): 是一次非常棒的修行体验。 - 非常棒的体验，早餐和晚餐的日式料理非常有感觉。早上的寺庙仪式会让人沉下心来。 只有公共浴室。
• Bernd (9/5): - Freundlicher Empfang. Auch ohne Erfahrung bei Meditation, Zeremonien kann man bedenkenlos mitmachen und wird freundlich aufgenommen.
• Cristiano Boaron (9/5): Notte al tempio - Esperienza molto interessante, mi e' piaciuta l'atmosfera, la camera ed il cibo buonissimo. Purtroppo il momento della preghiera e' stato vissuto con distacco perche' non e' stata data una spiegazione in inlgese di quello che sarebbe avvenuto e di come si sarebbe dovuta svolgere la meditazione.
• KUSUNOKI (7/5): -
• Wilhelmina (8/5): - Beleving Eten vooral het ontbijt. Hadden meer verwacht van de ceremonies. Kregen de indruk dat het speciaal voor de toeristen was.
• Thorsten (8/5): Ein besonderer Ort. Auch einige Pilger, aber kein Verglich mit den Unmengen an Touristen in Kyōto bei den Tempeln. - Es war ein spiritueller Ort. Wir hatten einen Eindruck, wie die Mönche leben. Leider war es sehr kalt. Durch die leichte Bauweise innen- gleich Außentemperatur. Pulli einpacken.
• Kyung (8/5): -
• sara (7/5): - Bellissima tutta l’esperienza Stanza per me troppo fredda e umida ( dopo un pó ha smesso di funzionare la stufetta e ciao ciao) il cibo non mi è particolarmente piaciuto. Consiglio di portarsi qualcosa da mangiare dietro sennó è difficile tra cena e colazione portare a casa un pasto completo
• Márcia (9/5): -
• Louis (9/5): -
• Patrick (7/5): - Ervaring, ochtendritueel Het eten. Heel mooi opgemaakt maar helemaal niet onze smaak.
• Anna (9/5): Esperienza unica - La struttura è meravigliosa, il cibo eccezionale, esperienza veramente notevole Sicuramente freddissima (visitata a marzo) ma la stufa a gas ha riscaldato molto velocemente la stanza e la termocoperta sotto al tatami è stata una meravigliosa sorpresa
• Tijl (10/5): Ondergedompeld in boedhistische sfeer. - De rust, de totale beleving. Niets.
• Anja (1/5): -
• Jeny (10/5): -
• 鴫原 (8/5): -
• sidonie (10/5): -
• Reibel Yann (10/5): -
• Diane (10/5): - Het warme welkom, de goede verzorging, het eten was subliem, oog voor detail en de bereidheid om dingen te vertellen en te delen met de gasten. Ik heb me zeer welkom gevoeld.
• Pascale (10/5): Émouvant, humain, inoubliable -
• Luca (10/5): Maravilloso - La tranquillità e la parte de meditación, rezo etc
• Antonio (10/5): -
• Christine (10/5): -
• Steffen (8/5): Unglaublich Erfahrung und eine hetrausragende Küche! - Mönche, essen (!) und Lage in Koyasan waren herausragend. Teilnahme an diversen Zeremonien sowie Gast Geschenke bewahren ein speziellen Platz in der Erinnerung dieser Reise Gemeinschaftsbad könnte mehr Dusch Schläuche gebrauchen, sowie ein Öffnungszeit des Bads am Morgen wäre super
• Nicolas (6/5): Eine interessante Erfahrung, aber das Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis passt überhaupt nicht. - Die Teilnahme an den buddhistischen Zeremonien und der Meditation. Wir finden, das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis passt überhaupt nicht. Es war mit Abstand unsere teuerste Nacht und dafür bekommt man wenig Komfort, schläft auf schlechten Matratzen und mittelmäßiges Essen.

• Winzeler (10/5): -
• Iva (10/5): -

• Lorna (9/5): -
• Analia Laura (8/5): - Me gustó mucho el lugar. Si bien era invierno la habitación tenia calefacción y dormimos muy bien. El lugar y el pueblo son espectaculares La meditación no fue lo que esperaba. No hablan inglés casi nada. No se entiende nada de lo que hablan. Eso fue una lastima. El onsen muy básico. La comida muy muy rara. Nosotros comemos de todo pero la cena no fue rica.
• Jeannine (9/5): -
• Olivia (10/5): -
• Martina (10/5): - Esperienza molto impattante, i monaci sono gentilissimi, e soprattutto ti fanno vivere con autenticità la tradizione. Colazione e cena superlativi, cerimonie molto belle a cui assistere, materassi comodi, stanza calda, onsen fantastico. Niente
• Thomas (10/5): -
• Debbie (9/5): Unique opportunity to participate in temple traditions. - Amazing opportunity to stay in a temple. Lovely onsen and wonderful opportunity to participate in ceremonies. We were received with Grace and courtesy and loved the tradition of the whole experience. A little more information on the ceremonies and what to expect and maybe a few words on the temple itself and temple life would have added to the stay. Loved walking around the cemetery.

• Chanemouga (10/5): - The monks' hospitality and cuisine provide an incredible experience. Nothing
• Nette (8/5): -
• Franziska (10/5): Tolles Erlebnis! - Tolles und interessantes Erlebnis. Es war toll, an den Zeremonien teilnehmen zu dürfen. Das Essen war sehr lecker. Die Mönche waren sehr freundlich, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Wir würden es sofort wieder buchen.
• Adriana (10/5): Experiência Memorável! - Experiência única em Koyasan. Ficamos hospedados aqui para visitar Koyasan e ter a experiência de ficar num templo. O alojamento fica a 20min de autocarro da estação. Não existem indicações na rua sobre o nome do alojamento, mas seguindo o Google Maps encontramos facilmente. Desde o começo que nos sentimos muito bem acolhidos pelos funcionários. A comida era muito boa apesar de não ser muito convencional. Faz parte da experiência. O quarto era muito confortável, com AC, e mantas aquecidas. Tínhamos tv e chá disponível assim como toalhas e kimonos, um mais fresco e um tipo casaco mais quente. Dormir no futon neste templo foi eleita a melhor noite da nossa viagem no Japão! O edredon era muito quente e tínhamos uma manta aquecida. As partes comuns do templo são muito frias, por isso leve algo quente para quando não estiver no quarto. As casas de banho são comuns e estão disponíveis em vários locais. Limpeza irrepreensível. Tivemos oportunidade de frequentar o onsen mesmo com tatuagens o que aconselhamos muito para relaxar. Na manhã seguinte participamos na cerimónia do fogo o que foi muito especial. Recomendamos muito a visita ao cemitério de Okunuin durante a noite e de manhã cedo. Vale muito a pena. Se fizer a visita noturna tenha em conta que tem hora para regressar ao templo. O cemitério encontra-se a 10min a pé do templo. Gostei de tudo!
• Alannah (10/5): -
• Justine (10/5): - Amazing opportunity to see the monk traditions and lifestyle of Koyasan.
• Olga (9/5): - Прекрасный опыт проживания в храме. Ужин кайсеки ( вегетарианский) очень вкусный и необычный. Атмосфера во время церемонии огня завораживающая Я была в феврале, ночью температуру воздуха опустилась до минус 6. С учётом того что кондиционер работал только с момента заселения то есть с 16:00 в номере было очень холодно. Но я об этом знала, это особенность храмов, нужно быть к этому готовым
• Karin (10/5): -
• Lina (10/5): -
• Jeh Tzu (10/5): - 住宿環境安靜優雅，美食體現完美精緻的日本文化
• Barthet (10/5): Une pause hors du temps - La beauté du lieu, ainsi que l’ensemble des explications concernant les cérémonies auxquelles il est possible de participer
• Julie (10/5): 2 nuits minimum ! - Quelle expérience dépaysante et hors du temps, je ne peux que vous conseiller de rester plus d'une nuit pour apprécier les méditations, prières et rituels Koyasan restera gravé dans ma mémoire et l'expérience au Temple y contribue grandement, les moines bien qu'un peu farouche s'ouvrent facilement lorsque qu'on entame la conversation ! Les repas étaient très bons pleins de saveurs et le petit déjeuner surprenant ! Les chambres sont confortables avec un chauffage individuel, évidemment les parties communes sont très fraîches en ce début mars mais on s'y fait vite Je ne peux que recommander de s'attarder au moins 2 nuits pour espérer goûter aux plaisirs contemplatifs du boudhisme Merci Rien
• Isabel (9/5): Beautiful spot with a unique experience and great hosts - Wonderful atmosphere and great food It was very, very cold due to the structure of the building
• Giuseppe Daniele (10/5): -
• Rok (10/5): -
• AKEMI (10/5): -
• Joshua (10/5): Temple Stay should be on everyone's list - Most interesting place i have ever stayed...amazing location, cleanliness, and service. Private bed room with shared bathrooms. Communal dinning experience on tatami. Nothing.
• Lin (9/5): - Close to everything I want to visit Experience was really good, staff are very kind
• Kateřina (9/5): -
• Aurel (10/5): -
• Benji (8/5): -
• Ana (10/5): Wonderful - Very traditional place and clean No coments
• Beatrice (9/5): -
• Andrés (10/5): Perfect. You must to do it. - The place was amazing. Some of the monks speaks English. nothing, everything perfect. I've read some comments about the food... dude, you are in a temple, is not McDonald's. Please...
• Hannah (8/5): -
• Brendan (9/5): Nice experience, great food, okay value for money - The dinner and breakfast were delicious, varied and so well presented. The staff were super friendly and explained everything well. The onsen was lovely, as were the various prayers and ceremonies we got to experience It does get very cold at night around the temple, and it was a fairly pricey stay for what it was
• Junji (9/5): -
• Hongling (10/5): 先日、泊まりました。たいへん良い宿坊で、また泊まりたいと思います。 -
• Matthew (7/5): - Fantastic, attentive service offered by the Monks as soon as you step through the door with a matcha and sweet treat. They are always on hand to make your stay as comfortable as possible. I found the evening dinner and breakfast really nice with plenty of variety. The room was very comfy and a warm escape from the freezing corridors. The whole experience is of a guesthouse run by Monks for tourists, not of a running temple allowing tourists inside. The meditation/ morning ceremony/ fire ceremony was conducted by one monk solely for the outside tourists. There wasn't much explanation at all about what the ceremonies were for- the meditation was just two bangs of a gong to signify the start and end. Even a small bit of literature placed in the room about the different ceremonies would make people more clued up about what was going on. That said, I still really enjoyed this experience- its more for a glimpse into some parts of Buddhism in a tourist setting, not for anyone looking for a serious experience in Zen Buddhism.
• Adrianna (10/5): -
• Bourdoux (10/5): 1 expérience unique - Expérience unique, hors du temps. Temple sublime, nourriture incroyable, calme, spiritualité. Rien
• Kentaro (10/5): -
• TAKUJI (9/5): 自分のミスですが、bookng.comの検索の人数の初期値が２人なのに気付かず、倍額の支払いとなったことがいたかったです。それ以外はとても満足です - 瞑想や護摩業、写経を体験できたこと 湯船がゆったりとして肩まで疲れるところ 泊まった部屋のテレビが画像にノイズ（赤くなる部分あり）がでる ２人用の部屋であれば、電源はもう少し多い、かつ、延長コードが短い
• Naoya (10/5): とても勉強になりました。また室内からも雪が見れて、娘が大変喜んでいました。 - とても丁寧な対応をして頂きました。食事も充実しており、本格的な精進料理でとても美味しかったです。 部屋以外、廊下がとても寒かったですが、まあ冬ですから仕方がありませんね。
• Flavio (10/5): - È stata un esperienza bellissima sotto ogni punto di vista. Ovviamente i bagni in comune e i servizi non provati della stanza sono una comodità in meno, ma erano veramente pulitissimi e inoltre fa parte dell'esperienza, quindi io lo vedrei più come un pro che come un contro. I pasti e le cerimonie sono il pezzo forte per un esperienza più autentica.
• Amy (10/5): -
• Peter (10/5): A little pricey, but totally worth it - Bus stop nearby. The stay included a dinner and a breakfast, which were both vegetarian and delicious. The room was spacious, reliable AC, and the staff made our beds. We received Yukatas during our stay. We were allowed to use the onsen in the temple with tattoos. It was a special experience witnessing the meditation and the morning ceremony, and being able to stay in a temple in general.
• Yu Han (10/5): -
• Mathilde (10/5): Expérience inoubliable de vivre quelques heures au rythme des moines - Participer aux cérémonies et les repas
• Michelle (7/5): - Das Morgengebet, Meditation und die Feuerzeremonie konnten kostenlos mitgemacht werden. Das Essen war vegetarisch und überraschend gut. Sehr gute Lage des Tempels. Die Mönche waren sehr zuvorkommend. Im Männerbad gab es Schimmel an den Wänden. Außerhalb der Zimmer war der Tempel sehr kalt, somit auch die Toiletten. Beim hinteren Bad (an den Zimmern) gab es kein Warmwasser am Waschbecken. Die Bettwäsche roch ein wenig muffig.
• Vadym (10/5): -
• Sovaridi P (10/5): - Les Moines sont extrêmement gentils et bienveillants.nous avons dormi 2 nuits au temple au mois de janvier il fessait très froid le matin pour les cérémonies donc prévoir de quoi se couvrir il y a des chaufferettes et des tapis chauffants mais on est a la montagne presque 1000 m .La chambre est confortable et le diner et petit déjeuner suffisants. N'oublions pas que c'est un temple, la participation au cérémonies et médiations sont très appréciées.
